You Are a Beam of Light - The Beths

Lightning strikes

From the heights and finds

The tallest spires

Points and clicks and acquires

You are high

Fists fall clenched in climb

Attracting fire

Down your spine, electrified

But after all, burnt and tired

'Cause we live in darker times

Open my eyes so I can see brighter, oh

You are a beam of light

Maybe that’s why your battery runs dry

I hear you cry

From the other side

Of a broadband line

That cuts out and in, two seconds behind

You go quiet and say goodnight

You go quiet and say goodnight

'Cause we live in darker times

Open my eyes so I can see brighter

And you are a beam of light

Maybe that’s why your battery runs dry

Meet me outside in five

I will be waiting out by the street signs

And you are a beam of light

Maybe that’s why your battery runs dry

We live in darker times

Open my eyes so I can see brighter

And you are a beam of light

Maybe that’s why your battery runs dry

Meet me outside in five

I will be waiting out by the street signs

And you are a beam of light

Maybe that’s why your battery runs dry
